Travie McCoy

Rapper, singer, and songwriter Travie McCoy first made a name for himself as the frontman for the versatile alternative rap group Gym Class Heroes. After releasing four albums, including 2006's chart-topping As Cruel as School Children, which featured the platinum-selling single "Cupid's Chokehold," McCoy embarked on a solo career, issuing the acclaimed hip-hop-, reggae-, and rock-influenced Lazarus in 2010. He continued to release singles and features as the years progressed and eventually inked a deal with Hopeless Records, which put out the 2022 album Never Slept Better, his first full-length project in over a decade.
